Description

Maske, "n'gré"
Bete, Côte d’Ivoire
Mit Sockel / with base
Holz, Polsternägel. H 25 cm.

Provenienz:
- Galerie Walu, Zürich.
- Schweizer Privatsammlung, Zürich.

Die in der südwestlichen Elfenbeinküste angesiedelten Bete sind bekannt für ihre kraftvollen, anthropomorphen und aggressiv anmutenden Kriegermasken. Diese sind mit stilisierten Hauern versehen, die auch als Kieferklauen einer Spinne interpretiert werden.

Diese Masken dienten einst dazu, die Männer auf den Krieg vorzubereiten. Später traten sie aber bei den unterschiedlichsten Anlässen auf: So konnten sie beispielsweise bei zeremoniellen Festlichkeiten wie an Gedenkfeiern zu Ehren einer bedeutenden Persönlichkeit, bei Gerichtsverhandlungen oder auch einfach zur Unterhaltung des Dorfes in Erscheinung treten.
